Choc-orange protein balls just 85 calories

Hands up who loves the combination of chocolate and orange? Yes, us too! These tasty protein balls are the perfect snack to enjoy between meals on the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge.

This recipe was sent in by 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge member Cassie.

She says “These choc-orange protein balls are not only absolutely delicious but have less than 2g of natural sugar each. With an added protein boost from The Healthy Mummy’s Chocolate Whey Protein Powder, your snack choice can’t go wrong.”

You can also use your regular Healthy Mummy Smoothie powder instead of the protein powder if you prefer. If you want to up your protein, you can look to the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge for inspiration.

We’ve got recipes such as Strawberry and Banana Protein Pancakes, Nutty Crunch Protein Balls, and Hazelnut Protein Squares, just to name a few.
